Q> Cleaning the sensor

[Hot Ice]

---

Sa CAMERA CARE mahuman nila ang cleaning at less than half the time and less then half the price sa canon. Naa to 1 dust sa ako sensor sauna then samukan ko kung mag pixel peep kay kita kaayo (OC). then pag ask nako ato nga time, 900 normal then 1500 expedite. then 7 days expedite 14 days normal. Sa canon na. wala nalang ko ako gipasagdahan. Dli pud ko ganahan ipa service sa lain while within warranty pa ako cam. if outside na siguro, okay ra cguro CAMERA CARE. nindot man pud og feedback.

pagka dugay, nawala raman pud. na taktak siguro sa sigi flip sa mirror (basin matarong sa movement sa air sa sulod, ako ranang huna huna) and sa kanang sensor cleaning gyud mismo.

Cleaning it doesn't take 14 days. It's the queue. There are lesser number of technicians than the number of cameras being services. So first in, first out. Sometimes a certain unit is put on hold waiting for parts being ordered so they move on to the next unit in line. It's the same with every service center of any digital equipment, there's always a lead time because of the number of units being serviced or the ordering of certain parts. Plus there's the testing phase for other units depending on the nature of the damage/problem on the unit being serviced.

14 days para mag-limpyo ug sensor

Ing-ani jud na kalisud nga work that it will took that long??

Ka thrilling ani sir oi. For first timers I think its recommended to watch someone qualified do it first. Ma misaligned nya, nah! sobra pa sa kaput!

You can do careful manual cleaning (swabbing) using Dust-Wand on the sensor and screen leading to the viewfinder prism but never, never, touch the flipping mirror. The moving/flipping mirror is the most sensitive among the three. Besides, it's only the dust on the sensor that affects the photo. Dirty mirror and screen affect only viewing.

If you attempt to clean and apply so much pressure on the mirror, it will give way or be misaligned and go kaput. Use blowers instead.

about sa nay dots sa viewfinder...continue here nlang

Sir Hayden :
Ang imo pics naa pod dots? If wala ky ang imo na view finder ang bulingot, tang-tanga na ang eye piece tapos lugita ang view finder ug microfiber cloth

Hot ICE :
yep, if wala dots sa pics dli na ang sensor.

daghan options, either ang mirror sa sulod, ang focusing screen, or ang sa viewfinder gyud mismo kana sa luyo.

[dbgg1979]

LoL. so its not safe for me too... I'll have mine serviced nalang when the time comes.

Would you believe I learned this the hard way. I used to resort to DIYs having been quite successful with it as long as you follow instructions carefully from others who say to do it their way. The only problem is that your steady fingers lose coordination or become clumsy as you do things when you're on low batt condition.

Yes, I had to give up and submit a camera with a broken mirror for repair.
